As part of the reopening of Kentucky Kingdom, the Hurricane Bay water park was expanded into the area see, with 3 new slides, a and an additional wave pool and river built.
Wikiwiki Wai features three very varied slides.
From the car park side you can clearly see the "fattened" helices on the "Kilawaya" slide.
You can get a sense of scale of the slide tower in comparison to the nearby T3 roller coaster.
Holiday World broke their own world record, and built a slightly longer Hydromagnetic slide next to the existing Wildebeest.
The final helix.
A conveyor takes rafts to the top of the hill. What follows is a lengthy course of dips and rises, connected by dark tunnels.
The last section of slide before splashdown is enclosed.
Holiday World's two record breaking Hydromagnetic slides.
At the end of the slide guests splash down into a channel.
A slow float brings riders back to the station.
The main entrance. Already you can tell this is a bigger operation than your typical water slide.
The lower half of the slide.
Watubee is perhaps the most sedate of the multi person raft slides in the park.
The first half of the slide.
At the time of opening, Wildebeest was the worlds longest "water coaster" type slide, at just over half a kilometer long.
The ride looks much like a roller coaster, with hills and dips.
